Riverhead, New York Pedophile Charged for Molesting 5-Year-Old

Law enforcement in New York say that they've arrested a man after he molested his female roommate's five year old son.

32 year old Amilcar Alvarado was taken into custody by State Police after they became aware that he was molesting the young boy behind his roommate's back on several occasions.

Investigators say that they first learned about the abuse which happened at the home earlier this week when the boy's mother walked into the Police Barracks Friday in Riverhead which led them to investigate the case.

Alvarado has now been charged with first-degree criminal sexual act, first-degree sex abuse and endangering the welfare of a child.

According to Prosecutors Alvarado is now being housed in the Suffolk County Jail on a $25,000 cash bond until he faces arraignment later next week.
